It's destiny that these two R & B powerhouses would meet.

Talk about a #ThrowbackThursday! Atlanta peach Kandi gets real with West Coast rapper Tupac. Kandi writes: "That was during my I don't smile in pictures phase.... Lol!"

Kandi smiles along with Monica and Alicia Keys! The Housewife wrote: "not sure what possessed me to go with NO makeup on.... #ilookcrazy #theylookgreat Lol! Love them"

Kandi knows all the soulful singers -- here she poses with Eddie Levert who starred in her original musical 'A Mother's Love' and American Idol's Ruben Studdard at the Soul Train Awards.

No tea, no shade here! (Well, one pair of shades). Kandi snaps a pic with sexy Brit Idris Elba.

Hey Kandi, next time you're hanging with Carle Rae Jepsen in the Bravo Clubhouse, call us, definitely!

Talk about a one in a million pair! Kandi grins with the always stylish Ne-Yo.

There's nothing funny about our girl's fab look as she poses with the hilarious Eddie Griffin.

It's the Elusive Chanteuse herself! That's right Kandi (and Momma Joyce) go way back with Mariah Carey. Kandi writes: "#tbt here's a pic of my mom & I with @mariahcarey. I was so mad when I realized whoever took the pic chopped off part of Mariah's head. . ." We would be, too!

Hey Tyler Perry! There's two people that know a lot about strong older ladies! Ahem, Madea, Momma Joyce. . .Kandi wrote that she is "so inspired" by this icon.

You can tell Monique had Kandi and her crew laughing all through this visit.

Kandi gets up close and personal with Bravo's own funny lady -- Kathy Griffin.

Clearly Kandi and Ruben are good pals -- her Instagram is filled with shots of this pair!

Kandi Burruss cozies up to Joe Manganiello on the red carpet. Let's hope it's not a full moon, or this Housewife might be in trouble!

What's a star-studded Instagram without the King of Late Night Andy Cohen?

Does it get more VIP than hanging with Rev. Al Sharpton? He is one Very Important Person!

Oh, how you doing,Wendy Williams?

We know you're focused on Kandi beaming in the foreground but check out who it is behind her-- a very young P. Diddy!

Of course our music queen knows everyone in the industry -- including former VJ Sway.

Kandi ran into Ludacris at the airport -- she wrote: "Caught the 5:45am flight from LA to Atl & ran into @itsLudacris. Guess I'm not the only early bird." We gotta start taking earlier flights.
